Exactly, Jeff.

I was just presenting a scenario with a different kind of illegal forward pass. I assume you'd pick up the flag in the intentional grounding situation, and you'd just wave off the DPI in the "over the line" situation.

I thought of the "over the line" situation because that's one that you know would bring out the boo-birds (in the stands and on the sideline) because I doubt very seriously that fans or coaches are well versed in that rule.

But now I am, so thanks!
